    It was hard to pinpoint...

    Melda_T, May 2026
    It was hard to pinpoint where to begin and then where to go to the next stop. After walking around & around, we finally just gave up and walked our own way.

    Response from Host, Jun 2026

    Oh no — this really isn't the experience we want anyone to have, and we're sorry the route left you going in circles. The app is meant to drop you a clear starting pin and then guide you stop-to-stop, so something didn't work the way it should have for you. We'd genuinely like to understand what happened and put it right, so please reach out to us at veronica.grifa@exploro.app and we'll look into it and sort out a refund. Thank you for giving us the chance to do better.

    Not as expected

    Janet_W, Oct 2025
    Disappointing narration due to hard to follow directions, some streets not named and some had blocked access. Detours and errors made walk much longer than advertised. Gave up half way.

    Response from Host, Oct 2025

    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, Janet. We’re sorry to hear the navigation wasn’t as smooth as expected — Bristol’s ever-changing city layout can occasionally make directions tricky. We’ve taken note of your comments and will review the route to ensure clearer guidance and accessibility. We’re glad you gave the tour a try, and your feedback genuinely helps us improve future experiences for all explorers. Kind regards,
